Questions, bug reports, features requests, ... about the Oric Software Development Kit. Please indicate clearly in the title the related element (OSDK for generic questions, PictConv, FilePack, XA, Euphoric, etc...) to make it easy to locate messages.

The idea is simple: Run the suite with a particular version of the OSDK, running the tools on a known set of files and compute the MD5 of the generated files.
Then run the suite with another version of the tools, and check that the MD5 are identical.

I did it only for PictConv so far, but in time I will extend that to the other tools.

Yes indeed, but in this case it's an expected failure: When this happen you run the tester in generation code and then you update the SVN depot with the updated MD5 list matching the new version of the code.
